White powder sent to 'Dancing With The Stars' studio

The suspicious white powder was found around 2 p.m. in a mailroom at CBS Television City, a large studio complex, according to Richard French, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department.

A hazardous materials team was called in to gather the powder and test it before declaring it harmless.

No one was exposed to the powder and no injury has been reported, French said. The envelope was addressed to the show, not a specific participant, he said.

"Outside of mail room operations being suspended for a few hours, no business operations or show productions were affected," said CBS spokesman Chris Ender.

He declined comment on what safety precautions CBS may take in the future.
